Hugs From Sebastian, a Captive-Bred Meerkat

As a captive-bred meerkat, Sebastian was sold legally as a pet in South Africa. His owner, unfortunately, failed to provide this little guy with adequate living conditions and abandoned him at the Mohololo Animal Rehabilitation Center. He was later transferred to the Cheetah Outreach Center, where he eventually made his way back home and reconnected with his family. Sebastian in the video clings to the man’s legs, which is quite adorable.
